The Woodburys Four have turned into the Wildberry Five! Nanny Zoe has come to the rescue for the summer and we are so lucky to have her helping hands around!!
I'll be honest. When I was growing up I used to chuckle to myself about SAHMs who hired nannies for the summer, thinking "why do they need a nanny if they don't work?"---- I take all of that back and now realize how important and wonderful an extra pair of hands is. Sanity is hard to keep when Kyle is working 6 days a week at 12-16 hour days.
Zoe was our babysitter in Provo back in the student days and we asked her to come live with us for the summer to keep me sane. What a treat!!! She is so helpful and great with the Cade and Savannah. She hit the ground running upon her arrival and has made friends with the gals here in the ward. She got to go to Youth Conference to Nauvoo last weekend and boy was I jealous.
All in all, though things are busy and stressful, I am still getting more accomplished than I would if I was on my own. Running errands without the children is amazing beyond description and getting to spend one-on-one time with Cade and Savannah throughout the week is awesome. A trip to the temple is much easier now and what a blessing that is. Let's hear it for nannies!
